I stayed here twice. I stayed in THEhotel and a suite in the original tower after the remodel. The remodeled rooms are nice, very uplifting tones in the room. I wanted to stay here to swim in the pool, but I never made it to the pool. I was way too hung over to be in the sun. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Love this place! I love the Asian vibe. The restaurants are fabulous. The wave pool is amazing. The casino is hot. The rooms are amazing. Truly one of my favorite hotel/casinos. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I've always enjoyed staying at Mandalay Bay, even more when the room is comped. They have a nice selection of mid-priced eateries and a few higher priced (Fleur de Lys and StripSteak have always been excellent). The rooms are nice, the suites eve nicer, and if you get a view looking up The Strip it's one of the best views in town. Only complaint is location, location, location, it's a hike to get to the mid-Strip casinos, figure on taking taxis and learning some of the non-Strip roads heading north/south. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

This carpet joint has really earned my adoration the hard way. I almost always win at the slots here. I've enjoyed staying at THEhotel's awesome suites. I don't remember a single bad meal at Border Grill, Red White and Blue, Aureole, or Mix. Oh, and how about that pool??!! All in all, the understated elegance of this place still makes Mandalay Bay a winner for me! :-D» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

My favorite place to stay and play. Love the tropical resort theme. The pools are the main factor that draws me there. Does feel like a high end resort.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I love the smell of this place.....probably my favorite casino and sportsbook layout. The rooms arent bad, and if the wife ever decides to bring the kids, I'll stay here for the pool alone. UPDATE : Kids are now grown since I started this page, so screw em, let them take thier own ass to Vegas. Still love love love how this place smells.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I guess this isn't exactly a great hotel by anyone's standards now, but it's the first place I stepped into and stayed at, and it does have a few tricks up it's sleeve. You can't beat Mix or Foundation Room for views, the HOB is one of the city's two large venues willing to run indie-league shows, and the showroom has been hosting solid Broadway hits for years.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I stayed at THEhotel and it is alot nicer and friendly than people think. Great service, one of the chefs was on "Top Chef," it's right next to Mandalay Bay and Mamma Mia, you can use the pool, there is no casino i the lobby, alleviating our noses of so much smoke, and it's just great.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

The only flaw with the hotel is the lack of a true front entrance. The layout is easily followed. The pool is huge. The Shark Reef is a good value and also a good place to take kids if you happen to have them with you. The dining options are very good. There is even a small but well stocked bookstore right off the casino that gives you somewhere to pick up something to read on your flight home. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Very nice rooms, Lousy Location, Mack Daddy Spa, Good dining options, Good Buffet, Great Pool, Only thing that keeps me from staying here again is location» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

TheHotel is great, Mandalay hotel is just ok. Everything else rocks. The restaurants are great, night life is ultra fun, and the pool is 2nd to none. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I stayed at Mandalay Bay in Dec 2007 and it was a great experience. From the time I pulled up in valet until it was time fo me to leave, the staff were great. The room was soo great and the bathroom had a separate shower and whirlpool tub with a glass window on the side where the tub was(frosted glass).» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I stayed here all the way back in 99. The beach/pool area in just amazing. The room was great, very clean and fresh ( I think it was only a year old at the time). They had just started building Shark Reef when we stayed, so when I went back to Vegas a few years later I saw it. Pretty nice, a good thing to do on a hot day to get some shade. But I think most of all I love that wonderful smell they pump through the place.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Stayed here for a business conference. Had the 550DDR Strip View room. The standard room was nice. Clean, comfy bed, plasma TV, double closets, large tub and separate shower, dual sinks and standard hotel beige decor. City Center detracts from the view north from the hotel. I also had a fantastic view of the airport. Fortunately, I wasn't particularly bothered by the sound of planes arriving and departing. The pool was always crowded and tough to get a seat in the sun. We opted for the Moorea Beach Club. Bikini Blackjack at the beach casino was fun. Would have broke even on gambling, but Mrs. Fox did not maintain her usual luck on the slots and I maintained at cards. Since it was a business trip this time, I didn't get to spend as much time in the casino as I would have liked. I tried to take pictures similar to the VegasTripping review. I plan to write a full review and see if ChuckMonster will post it. The biggest downside to the hotel room was no inside locks on the door. While I wasn't concerned about somebody getting in, I need the locks to keep my drunk ass in the room at night. I got up in the middle of the night to relieve myself and accidentally locked myself out of the room in the hallway in my undies. Good thing I wasn't alone. That could have been very embarassing.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I have always liked Mandalay Bay and TheHotel. Rooms are great, pool is probably the best with the wave pool, sandy beach, tube river and mini casino. The buffet is one of the better ones. There is a large concert venue at MB and a smaller one at the pool. Overall theme is good. It is on the very south end of the Strip. The free monorail to the Excaliber helps. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Next to Wynn my favorite rooms in Las Vegas are here..great living area and bedrooms with HD TVs, comfy beds, excellent bathroom..gaming here is awful..casino was too cold, literally, from the temperature to the machines...coffee shop is excellent but expensive..but would stay here again in a heartbeat and just play elsewhere...» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Many have mentioned it, but the smell of the place is intoxicating. I don't know if it's coconuts or "parrot poop" as someone said, but it's divine. Table games are not so good, and the douche factor on weekends is still as nauseating as it was 10 years ago. But the slots are fun, the restaurants and bars are great, the shopping choices take as much of my money as gaming, and the pools/beach are tops. And being a big sports book guy, their room is still my favorite of any casino I've been in so far. I attend an annual conference held here, so I frequent this place a lot. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I like the smell here. Snnnnifff, mmmm parrot farts. Given its numerous celeb-chef helmed restaurants, one of the best pools in Vegas, a fantastic sports book, and a cool rock club, this place should be so much more than it is. Unfortunately, the sum of its parts is a noticeably neglected MGM Resorts International joint, just like the rest of 'em.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

The location lacks the desire to stay here, then again this hotel has the best pool on the Strip. Sports Book is a good size and they also have a Tram. Rooms are very nice, with good size bathrooms and a tub. Stayed here in 2015.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Beautiful rooms and great pool (major bonus during the summer obviously). Have played here for years but that may change in 2011 as I have got some nice offers» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Never slept here, but Mix and Foundation Room alone make it worth our while. Note to EyeCandy: hey, uh, it's fucking vegas and you're not serving food, so go get me some matches and a tray, Honey.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Actually better now than it used to be because all the douchebags have migrated to Encore. Now that theyre comping rooms in the Four Seasons & Michael Jackson Cirque show is coming I'll bet you that this place would be back in the running for top dog on the strip if MGM would just show it a little more love & stop treatin it like a red-headed stepchild.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I have never actually stayed at this casino. For us it is too far away from the heart of the strip. We like to do short little stints in each casino and then move on to the next. This casino being at the end of the line does not make it condusive to this type of trip, unless you want to take taxis or walk past the same casinos day in and day out....

That being said, we love the restaurants here. Plan to stay at least 4 to 5 hours to enjoy as much good food as possible.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I love this hotel even though I haven't stayed here. I have, however, seen performances by Squeeze and also Madness in the House of Blues. Amazing!» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

I'm consistently happy with staying here. The rooms feel a bit crowded with all of the furniture that they try to throw in, but the beds are comfy and the bathrooms well appointed. Not too many douchebags and the noise level is good. Some of the dealers were great, others distracted, and pit critters seem almost human sometimes. It's at the far end of the strip, but to me that's a good thing.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

A more family oriented casino and resort. Don't recommend going if it is just a couple looking to party it up at the pools. Mostly children and families at the pool areas. The casino and the sports book are awesome. The clubs and lounges are definitely fun for the weekend couple to party down at!» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

My first four star hotel in Vegas. Was really impressed with the bathroom and floor to ceiling windows...until I stayed at a terrace studio @ the Cosmo. Glad to see MGM renovating those rooms as they were already worn out 4 years ago. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

not into the south seas themed motif? get a room on the 34th floor. they are known as house of blues themed rooms. staying at THEhotel isn't a bad choice either, very spacious. but i found a turd in my guest bathroom. it took 45 minutes for someone to reclean my room. ever since the merger with MGM-Mirage, the property has lost its luster. kinda sad really.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

Man Delay Bay ! There is always a line to check in or out, but they do their best to move as quickly as possible. I haven't stayed in the newly renovated rooms but the place needed an update. The property is great with a fun Casino, good Bar / Nightclubs, and good restaurants. I’ve seen great shows at the HoB (was 10’ from Snoop Dog, holdin my own on the dance floor for his show – ya heard me). I hope to check out the new bar and casino renovations next week. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

My first trip ever was spent here for three nights. The rooms are really nice but I didn't understand all the fuss. The buffet is delicious in my opinion but it's $20 just for lunch, so it's not a very cheap option. In general, I think the gaming here sucks. The House of Blues is a good place to see a concert and the Shark Reef is cool and (relative to Vegas) cheap for some fun. The rooms and options trumped the bad gaming for me.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

The brand new hotel rooms are nice, but MGM and their fee happy pillaging of their customers will prevent me from staying here any time soon. » To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

If it wasn't so far away from everything else on the strip, I'd be willing to rate higher. That said, everything about Mandalay Bay is pretty solid, very nice staff, large casino, there's nothing much bad I can say.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas

At Mandalay Bay, the room sucked. One of the double sinks was backed up. Ended with a big ashtray for a room after requesting a non-smoking room. A/C was screwed.» To update update or edit your favorites, login to MyVegas
